Benefits of choosing our Prenatal Paternity test

Since the prenatal paternity test analyses cell-free fetal DNA in the maternal blood, there is no risk of misdiagnosis or incorrect results due to previous pregnancies or miscarriages. This also means that the test is far more accurate and reliable than other non-invasive tests that use nucleated fetal cells (whole DNA enclosed in cells).

The prenatal test is 100% risk-free. The test analyses the cell-free fetal DNA found in the mother’s blood (which is collected via a simple blood sample). Other prenatal paternity testing methods such as Chorionic villus sampling are invasive and involve risks such as miscarriage, leakage of the amniotic fluid or damage to the baby’s limbs.

When compared to other sampling methods, this prenatal paternity test is less time to consume, more cost-effective and simpler to carry out. The medical costs of undergoing invasive sample collections such as Amniocentesis can be very high and can take longer to organise and conclude.

This highly scientific test does not require the assistance of an OB/GYN (obstetrician-gynaecologist) specialist. Both Amniocentesis and CVS are medical interventions and require the assistance of a specialist, and come with a high degree of risk, that our test completely eliminates.

Important Note

The prenatal paternity test cannot be performed in cases of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), twin or multiple pregnancies, less than 8 weeks pregnancy (6 weeks past conception) or when the alleged fathers are close blood relatives. The test also cannot be conducted when the mother is suffering from cancer or pre-eclampsia or has had a recent blood transfusion, bone marrow, organ transplant or stem cell therapy.

How does Prenatal Paternity testing work?

Scientists have long known the fact that fetal DNA is present in maternal blood during pregnancy. Our prenatal paternity test uses Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology and analyses over 5,000 genetic markers known as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to confirm the paternity of the fetus with 99.9% accuracy.

This DNA test requires a sample of maternal blood (collected via a standard medical blood sample) and either nails or mouth swab samples from the alleged father (read the sample collection instructions). Scientists need the maternal sample to separate the blood plasma (a blood component containing maternal and cell-free fetal DNA) from the rest of the blood. Once the fetal DNA is isolated from the plasma, it is analysed along with DNA samples from the mother and alleged father. At the laboratory, scientists use an informatics algorithm to compute the similarity of genetic markers between the fetal DNA and the alleged father’s DNA. If the probability that the alleged father has the genetic markers required of the biological father is greater than 99.9%, the result is a paternity inclusion. If the similarity falls within the range of non-fathers, the result will be a paternity exclusion.

This DNA test can be performed as early as your 8th week of pregnancy (6 weeks past conception)!

Do you need help finding a sampler?

EasyDNA offers a blood sample collection service for those clients who might not have time to search for a good phlebotomist in their area. The service is offered in conjunction with a specialised third-party provider. The fee of £125 covers the majority of locations, however, it can increase depending on the coverage of the phlebotomist in your area. If you order this service and there is an additional fee you will be informed via e-mail prior to the kit being sent out. Please note that the additional fee cannot be quoted on the phone. Should you be interested in this service, select the respective option when ordering the test.

The Test Results

EasyDNA’s prenatal test is one of the most accurate non-invasive prenatal tests for paternity worldwide! Standard results are available in 7 to 10 working days with an additional express testing option for clients who want their results in 5 to 7 working days (for express testing, the mother needs to be at least 10 weeks pregnant). Please note that turnaround time starts from the moment samples reach the laboratory. The results will show one of two outcomes:

The alleged father cannot be excluded as the biological father i.e. the tested male is the biological father and this will be confirmed with a 99.9% probability.

The alleged father is excluded as the biological father of the unborn baby i.e. the tested male is not the biological father and they will be excluded with a 100% probability.

Baby Gender upgrade: Discover even more!

EasyDNA also offers the option of learning the gender of your baby! For an additional £149, you can have the baby gender report included with the results of your prenatal paternity test. Please note that an additional sample from the expectant mother is required. Opt for this upgrade today and find out if you are having a boy or girl!

Most Common Questions

How do I collect the DNA sample?

A trained professional is required to collect the maternal blood sample for this test. The sample collection kit will include everything the collector needs to collect your samples including all the necessary documentation. The alleged father's samples can be collected by the test participants themselves.

Should both fathers be tested?

If the samples for both alleged fathers are available we strongly advise that you send them both. Please note that there is an additional fee for testing the second father. If the father lives in a different location, EasyDNA can also send out a separate kit for a small fee.

Can previous pregnancies or miscarriages affect my test results?

Fetal DNA is cleared from the maternal bloodstream within a period of a few hours. Because of this, there is no chance of misdiagnosis with our test.

However, the test results can be affected by other factors such as the gestational period, mutations in an individual's DNA, contamination during sample collection, method of sample storage and transportation.

How accurate are the results and will they stand up in court?

DNA paternity testing, whether prenatal or postnatal, will exclude the non-biological father with very high accuracy. However, only the results of a postnatal paternity test (if performed to legal requirements) will stand up in court. Prenatal paternity testing results cannot be used in a court of law. Most courts will not suggest using prenatal testing to determine paternity and almost always wait until after the baby is born to verify paternity. One of the main reasons for this is to avoid encouraging the use of invasive procedures such as CVS that can put the unborn baby at risk.

Are there any additional costs involved?

The only additional costs you may incur are if you choose to add any additional participants, kits or services to your order and the fee for the medical blood draw. Please see our Terms and Conditions for any other charges.

Can I send in additional samples after the results have been issued?

Once results are issued, the case will be closed. Therefore, the company is unable to use results from a previous prenatal test for additional testing after that the results have been issued. If clients require additional testing after (for example, testing a second alleged father), we will need fresh samples from the mother and the father. In such cases, clients will need to purchase a new prenatal test at the price stipulated on the website.
